![Wendover Arm - bifurcation. This is quite an interesting part of the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union canal between Bucklandwharf and Drayton Beauchamp. When the A41 bypass was built in the first decade of the C21st it had to cross this disused canal. Had the new road cut across it without sufficient headroom it would have been impossible (or financially unreasonable) to reopen the canal on this side of the road. But the developers were persuaded by the Wendover Arm Trust to provide a bridge. I think to facilitate this, the canal's course was altered slightly, such that it now swoops round to the right in a new cutting, the original course of the canal ending at the straight line seen ahead. The former course of the canal can be seen in this photo [[[4396807]]]However, the above is my reading of the situation, it is possible that the](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/04/39/68/4396800_ba1f4971_120x120.jpg)
![Reeds and sluice mechanism, Wendover Arm. As discussed in [[[4396800]]] and [[[4396807]]] I believe that the reedbed seen ahead is part of the original course of the Wendover Arm, though it is possible that it was (or is) some kind of overflow channel. See the other two images for more explanation.The mechanism in the left foreground almost certainly operates a sluice to allow water to flow into this channel. by Rob Farrow – 22 March 2015](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/04/39/68/4396819_97fe0539_120x120.jpg)

![Probable former course of Wendover Arm. I believe that this boggy, reedy tranche of land was the original course of the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal between Bucklandwharf and Drayton Beauchamp, which I think got diverted around 2000-2003.

![Accommodation bridge at Bucklandwharf. This little bridge allows access from Buckland Road to a small row of houses on the eastern side of the canal at Bucklandwharf. The canal is the Wendover arm of the Grand Union Canal and has been closed to canal traffic since 1897, though there are plans to re-open it. If they do, this bridge (which post-dates the closure) will have either to be raised, or else replaced by a swing- or lift-bridge.This bridge is numbered 5B as it is the second of two bridges which have been inserted between Bridge 5 [[[4396868]]] and Bridge 6 just beyond this bridge at Bucklandwharf which carries the Roman Akeman Street - the former A41, now declassified - over the canal.The other bridge to have been inserted is the more recent [[[4396839]]] which is Bridge 5A, an appellation which would formerly have been given to this accommodation bridge. by Rob Farrow – 22 March 2015](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/04/39/65/4396547_4f15b7ca_120x120.jpg)
